Eugene206's definitions
Someone famous for being famous (or infamous), particularly in the entertainment industry. A meta-celebrity is a well known celebrity, who has not done anything particularly noteworthy to justify their Fame. The late Anna Nicole Smith and Paris Hilton are two contemporary examples. Meta-celebrities do not always orginate in the entertainment industry, but they nearly always gravitate to it, often as a last ditch effort to extend their "fifteen minutes" as their profile starts to wane.

Get the kraft dinner mug.1. Refers to Air Canada Boeing 767 C-GAUN (c/n 22520), which on July 23, 1983 ran out of fuel over Northern Ontario, and glided to a landing at an abandoned airfield in Gimli, Manitoba. At the time, this was the first ever dead-stick landing of a jet airliner. The aircraft was subsequently recovered from Gimli and flew for Air Canada for another 25 years before being finally retired in January 2008.
2. Subsequently, the term 'Gimli glider' has become Canadian slang for a particularly glaring screw-up.

Get the Gimli glider mug.Lame mid-nineties attempt by McDonalds to sell pizza in their North American restaurants. Preceded by saturation marketing that scared the living daylights out of the regular pizza places, who figured that the Golden Arches was going to run them out of business. This didn't happen -- the resulting pizza was bland (like much of McD's food offerings), and most people who actually wanted pizza went to a pizza place like they always had. The company and its frachisees were left on the hook for expensive new ovens and widened drive through windows that weren't needed. Even saturation marketing wasn't enough to change the pizza habits of ordinary Americans, and McPizza was gradually abandoned, and generally forgotten. This was a sign that the Golden Arches wasn't always right, and a harbinger of the relative decline that McDonalds has since suffered relative to other fast food options.

Get the two waitresses to go with nothing on them mug.Britney's little sister, who proved that she's just as dumb as big sis by getting pregnant at 16 and probably destroying her 'career' in the process.
Further proof (if any were needed) that their mom, Lynn Spears, is a terrible mother.
Previously claimed to be a 'Christian' before becoming a teenage pregnancy statistic.

Jamie Lynn Spears probably pissed off Britney by stealing most of the tabloid coverage after announcing that she was pregnant.
